Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: unity
Apparently to make the launcher appear in Unity on the current daily
build of Ubuntu 11.04, you have to move the cursor completely into the
corner. However, when hovering the Ubuntu icon without touching the
corner of the screen, the launcher already fades in a bit, without
persisting (i.e. it disappears again the moment the cursor leaves the
icon). I found this very confusing, as I had gotten the idea that to
open the launcher, you had to hover the icon, but because I didn't touch
the corner, it disappeared again the moment I moved my cursor onto the
launcher.
A good solution would probably be to either have the launcher persist if
the cursor is moved on top of it even when it is semi-transparent, or to
not have it fade in at all.
